Has anyone used these phones with an Ooma Telo phone system? If so, what is voice quality &amp; does incoming caller ID function properly?

I use these phones with Ooma Telo and I am very happy them. Voice quality is very good and caller ID works properly.

Yes but why would you unless you are calling somewhere like Japan and have a lot of leftover minutes to burn on your Skype account. The Ooma system and it's HD quality sound is designed to replace the other peoples inferior quality units and systems at such monthly costs as my $3.71 bill for FCC and taxes versus $29.95 cheap bill promised by others with hidden charges. And if you have been using something like MagicJack or Vonage you will really be pleased with the clarity compared to long-distance echo or humming once you use Ooma.

YES! The phones have been great. We have them all over the place and they work very well. I would buy again. Good Quaility for sure. JIM HUNT.

In actuality the speaker phone was totally defective as the caller could not hear anyone speaking on my end.The sound quality within the handset was adequate despite some echo which was a result of the shape of the handset in my opinion.Hope that helps,Eric

I am sending back the two Ooma tel sets I have as well. It's a POS made in China. I didn't know that until I got them. I am not buying from China again. The Telo is a POS. I have to reboot and reload the battery or the person I am calling cannot hear me every time I charge it and it has to be charged a lot. Also, 2 handsets don't work and Ooma keeps pushing out the upgrade date. Their customer service his HORRIBLE and they are in the Phillipines. JUNK.

Yes, Bob, you do. FYI This caller id did not last very long. My phone quit working and the phone people realized that it was a faulty caller id.I junked it and ordered a Bellsouth product. I have always had good results from their products.

http://www.uniden.com/content/ebiz/uniden/resources/ownersmanuals/TRU9485om.pdf One thing I found about these handsets is the buttons quit working and there is nothing you can do. I took it apart and cleaned any contacts I could get to and still nothing. These are crap. But at least you have the manual now. Have fun!

That is one of the nice things about this system... simply plug them into the phone jacks and they worked great. I have 4 lines and 8 extensions and no problems yet. They auto-find/name or you can assign names/numbers to the extensions.

Thank you. The Net Talk is a brand new start-up so I hope they can make it. Searching for that product helped me find another as well. ooma Core VoIP Phone System with No Monthly Phone Service Bills I do not know if they are more likely to be around ten years from now or not. At these prices, they are both worth considering!

What I can tell you is that I have used this phone system for over a year without a single problem. I did a little research, and this is the system that best fit my needs at the time--and I was not disappointed. Hope this helps, Chuck

All you need is the Telo and a digital phone handset. The Ooma handset is fine but I used an old Panasonic digital handset which works just fine also.

No, they use different frequencies. I have both Panasonic phones and Ooma phones in my house. If the line is answered with the Panasonic, I can then pick it up with the Ooma, but not vice-versa. The very best feature the Ooma offers is the "blacklist" which you can use to stop annoying phone numbers from calling you. Once you get a call from a telemarketer, political call, collection agency, freaky ex, or anyone else you don't want to hear from, just go to the Ooma dashboard on line and two clicks later , you are done with that number.

Yes, I have had Ooma for three years and this past year calls began dropping out...dead silence....either I can hear the caller and they can't hear me or vice versa. It doesn't happen all the time on all calls. It does happen frequently.

I haven't used that feature if it indeed has it. I will say 99% that it doesn't. It's a good phone. I actually used it to replace a $3k clunky system a local vendor sold me upon opening my business that proved useless. We use this phone at a retail store & restaurant- it handles all of our incoming calls quite well & the caller ID has proven very useful for pesky marketing calls while trying to do business without announcing it aloud. Best of luck!

The new model also has some "issues" according to Ooma engineering / tech support. Specifically: Caller I.D. recognition problem, unit speaker volume poor, light display on controls too bright. Also, control functions available on unit panel of previous model not available on new model - now done with commands through your phone, which is a major hassle. I'd wait for a bit before purchasing this unit. I make these statements as a loyal owner of the previous Ooma Telo which is an awesome product, but Ooma had years to get it right. Just something to think about.

Call quality is very good with mine but I only make 2 or 3 calls a trip on the road, all cell. I have not used Skype so I can't help w I th that. All in all I really like and enjoy using the headphones.
